General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Might happen vs predicted to happen.

May seem like a small difference. But its really not. It changes possible to probable.

That said. The prediction is based on no changes. So you know full well this is being jumped on by right-wing media that have other reasons for arguing the change.

IE its about rich not wanting to pay the taxes needed to support the future p opulation. So arguing for anti immigration as a cost saving that won't effect them.
